As I interpret this article, the NYT feels the FBI handled Trump with kid gloves but was unfairly brutal in their handling of Hillary Clinton.

mmmmmmmm-okay.

"...Days after they closed their investigation into Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server, agents began scrutinizing the campaign of her Republican rival....."

One more barrel of horse pucky from the New York Lies. They never investigated Killary's e-mail crimes; it was a white wash with the exoneration written a couple months prior.

The NYT once more shows why they should never be considered an honest news source.

“This month, the Justice Department inspector general is expected to release the findings of its lengthy review of the F.B.I.’s conduct in the Clinton case. The results are certain to renew debate over decisions by the F.B.I. director at the time, James B. Comey, to publicly chastise Mrs. Clinton in a news conference, and then announce the reopening of the investigation days before Election Day. Mrs. Clinton has said those actions buried her presidential hopes.

“Those decisions stand in contrast to the F.B.I.’s handling of Crossfire Hurricane. Not only did agents in that case fall back to their typical policy of silence, but interviews with a dozen current and former government officials and a review of documents show that the F.B.I. was even more circumspect in that case than has been previously known.”

And the FBI should have been circumspect because they knew very well that there was no information sufficient to support opening an investigation of the Trump campaign in the first place. Contrast that to the way they handled Hillary Clinton. They whitewashed completely crimes by Hillary that would have resulted in lengthy jail terms by anyone else. They destroyed the hard drives so that no one could dispute their conclusions. The idea that Comey was tough on her because he talked about it is ludicrous. He let her off easy by whitewashing her crimes, and he had to talk about her in order to do so.
